Lise, he's gorgeous! Thank you for sharing the photos!

Brunette, for now my weight's going the other way (I've lost 10kg so far thanks to the m/s). I'll need to do what I can to keep it in check once I start eating again though because I'm very overweight to start with.

LondonMiss, I go for ignoring as my first option, with lying as the backup plan. But to be honest, generally I don't comment on names regardless of whether I like them or not. The only time I've had an unavoidable conversation about a name was with one of our friends who went to great lengths explaining how much effort they'd gone to to make sure their daughter's name was unique.

Lisa B, like you I'd spent all my time researching the TTC side. I know the IVF doctors in this city with good reputations, but not the OBs and had to make a choice on OB quickly with no time to research it. We're going private so that we'll get a private room and DH will be able to stay at the hospital with us if he wants to. The only appeal the public system had for me (aside from cost) was that they are less likely to intervene unless absolutely neccessary. Some OBs in private hospitals are very quick to jump to c-sections or inductions and I don't want those if I don't need them.
